Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?

I installed node-node-sass, and ran its installed binary node-sass.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Ran the command "node-sass". I tried running in different paths, with
different parameters, and on a different system, but the result was
the same.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

$ node-sass
/usr/share/nodejs/normalize-package-data/lib/fixer.js:138
      if (!(deps in data)) return
                 ^

    at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1027:10)


   * What outcome did you expect instead?

Either no error message, or a more meaningful error message (in case I
used the command wrong).
